Alum 7/11

Picked up one 15" smallmouth this morning on a tube off of the points. After the sun burned off the haze and the pleasure boats came out, tried flipping and cranking for lgm in the no wake area - didn't get a bite.

I would have thought the same thing as you, flip some jigs once the sun came out. Cranks worked for me a few weeks ago too, all around submerged trees. But I was there on a Monday afternoon, and couldn't get a bite until the sun came out, and most of the bites came on a spinnerbait around submerged trees. I thought it was odd. Couldn't get a hit on a spinnerbait until the sun came out. Give it a try in the cove across from the Galena ramp next time around.
